Yes, HIDULAR capsule houses are designed to perform efficiently in cold climates, keeping your home warm and comfortable even in low temperatures.
Our standard model operates efficiently in temperatures from 23°F to 131°F (-5°C to 55°C), suitable for various climates, including cold conditions.
Thermal Resistance: The polyurethane foam insulation and extruded board have a thermal resistance of 3.2m²·K/W, which is six times more efficient than traditional materials. This helps retain heat and reduces energy costs in colder months.
Air Tightness: With an air tightness rating of n50 = 0.45, our capsule houses have very low air leakage, minimizing heat loss and maintaining a cozy indoor environment.
For those living in areas with more extreme cold, we offer a winter version of our capsule houses, which includes several enhancements to ensure optimal performance and comfort in harsh climates. This version is designed to perform exceptionally well in temperatures as low as -31°F (-35°C) and up to 140°F (60°C).
To accommodate different needs in colder climates, we offer tailored winter heating upgrades for various models:
E15: US$2,100.00
E25: US$2,450.00
T30/T30F/E30: US$2,700.00
T40/T40F/T40P/T40PF/E40/E40S: US$3,300.00
With our winter version upgrades, HIDULAR capsule houses provide robust solutions for maintaining a cozy and energy-efficient living environment, no matter how cold it gets outside.
Yes, HIDULAR capsule houses are designed to perform exceptionally well in hot climates, ensuring comfort even in high temperatures.
To enhance comfort in hot conditions, all our capsule houses come equipped with split air conditioning units, tailored to the size and design of each model to ensure optimal cooling:
E15: 1.5P split AC
E25: 1.5P split AC
E30: 2P split AC
E40: 1.5P + 2P split ACs
E40S: 1.5P x 2 split ACs (Gree) – These units are designed to operate efficiently in a wide temperature range from -22°F to over 140°F (-30°C to over 60°C).
T30: 2P split AC
T30F: 2P split AC
T40: 1.5P + 2P split ACs
T40F: 1.5P + 2P split ACs
T40P: 1.5P + 2P split ACs
T40PF: 1.5P + 2P split ACs
These air conditioning systems ensure that each capsule house remains cool and comfortable, even on the hottest days. In addition to AC units, our capsule houses are also equipped with windows that can be opened to allow fresh air in, providing natural ventilation when desired. The "P" in the AC specifications refers to the horsepower (HP) rating of the unit, indicating the cooling capacity; higher numbers denote greater cooling power.
Thermal Resistance: Our capsule houses are built to operate efficiently in temperatures up to 140°F, making them ideal for hot climates. The thermal resistance of our polyurethane foam insulation and extruded board is 3.2m²·K/W, meaning our insulation effectively resists heat flow. This high level of thermal resistance is six times more efficient than traditional building materials, helping to keep the interior cool by minimizing heat transfer from the outside.
Air Tightness: Additionally, our buildings achieve an air tightness rating of n50 = 0.45, which indicates a very low rate of air leakage. This is crucial for maintaining a stable indoor temperature by preventing hot air from entering and cool air from escaping, ensuring the interior remains cool and comfortable, even during the hottest days.
With these features, HIDULAR capsule houses provide a reliable and comfortable living environment in hot climates, ensuring you stay cool and relaxed no matter how high the temperatures rise.
Our capsule houses are built with an anti-seismic hot-dip galvanized steel structural system and aviation-grade aluminum plates for both the inside and outside of the cabin. They feature a multi-layer thermal insulation structural system, and the fluorocarbon paint ensures they will not rust or corrode.
With these high-quality materials, our capsule houses are easy to maintain. With proper maintenance, the lifespan of our capsule houses can extend beyond 50 years, providing a long-lasting, reliable living space.
While all of our capsule houses provide solid, functional living spaces with the same durable structure—anti-seismic hot-dip galvanized steel structural system, multi-layer thermal insulation structural system, and fluorocarbon paint—the T-Series offers additional features and enhancements:
More Glass Coverage: The T-Series features extensive glass coverage with windows on three sides of the house, compared to the E-Series, which typically covers only two sides.
Comprehensive Lighting: The T-Series includes more comprehensive lighting, with increased ambient lighting throughout both the interior and exterior.
Models with Balconies: Only the T-Series has models with balconies, specifically the T30, T40, and T40P.
AC Presentation: The E-Series uses wall-mounted split AC units, whereas the T-Series conceals the splits and uses vents for a more streamlined appearance.
The E-Series is a versatile base model, offering durability and functionality, while the T-Series builds on that with additional features and provides a more modern, luxurious living experience.
Our capsule houses are available anywhere in the United States, including Hawaii.

You will need to coordinate with a trucking company or contractor to pick up the capsule house from the port. Arrange a service that can handle oversized loads and has the necessary equipment. They will need to confirm any special handling requirements and know specific pick-up procedures from the port.
Additionally, the site needs to be prepared with all necessary foundations and utility connections, including water, power supply, and sewage pipelines. For more detailed information, please view the FAQ category "Site Preparation."
We ship all of our capsule houses in a protective fabric to mitigate damage during the shipment.
If there are any damages that occur during shipment, please take photos of the damages and send it to our team.
The capsule house is designed with foot pads underneath, so a full foundation isn't necessary. However, it's important to place the capsule on solid, level ground to ensure it doesn't sink or shift over time. This stable surface can be gravel, compacted soil, or a concrete pad, depending on your site conditions.
Before the installation of your capsule house, you need to ensure that the following utilities are prepared and ready:
Water: Ensure that a water supply line is installed and operational at the installation site. If a connection to a public water supply is not available, a holding tank for water can be used.
Sewer: Make sure that sewer connections are in place and ready to be connected to the capsule house. If a connection to a public sewer system is not available, a septic tank can be used.
Electricity: Verify that electrical connections are available and can be hooked up to the capsule house upon installation.
Having these utilities prepared and ready before installation will help ensure a smooth and efficient setup of your new capsule house.
Whether you need a permit to place a capsule house on your property depends on the specific laws of your state and the zoning regulations of your area.
We recommend consulting with your local city authorities and speaking with a licensed contractor to get accurate guidance on the requirements and any necessary permits.
During the transportation phase, the capsule houses are transported using standard semi-trailers with dimensions of 57.4 feet in length, 9.8 feet in width, and a height of no more than 13.8 feet. Customers will need to arrange for a trucking company to handle the transportation of the capsule house to the site.
In the lifting stage, after the goods arrive at the site, customers need to have a local crane service to unload and place the capsule house. The lifting weight of our products ranges from 6 to 10 tons, and we recommend using a crane with a minimum capacity of 25 tons for loading and unloading.
During the installation phase, customers must complete on-site engineering of water supply, power supply, sewage pipelines, and solid ground or load-bearing foundations according to the standard basic water and electricity drawings we provide. Customers will need to hire a qualified contractor or installer to complete the installation, accurately position the capsule house, and connect water and electricity.
Our online price does not include: Trucking/transportation to your location or crane services to place the capsule house, permitting, and installing utilities.
Due to varying requirements in each state, we recommend working with a local contractor for these services.
The capsule house is fully inspected before it leaves our warehouse. However, unintentional damage can sometimes occur in transit.
Please inspect the capsule house thoroughly upon delivery from the port. If any damage is found, alert the delivery personnel, take pictures, and contact your capsule home representative immediately.
If any damages occur during transportation to the site or during installation, it would be the liability of the respective trucking company or contractor. We recommend that customers find a licensed local contractor with general liability insurance for the installation process.
The capsule house must be delivered on a heavy-duty truck with a 40' flat rack and positioned with a crane.
The truck and trailer require a clear >12' wide, relatively straight path from a paved road, as they cannot make tight turns, similar to a boat trailer or camper.
It is crucial that there are no obstacles that cannot be navigated around, such as fences, trees, branches, underground septic systems, etc.
